Across the years, yeah, naturally.

Yeah.

And as someone who, um, has learned a bunch of skills and is a deconstructed learning fan and understand a little bit about like how, at least how I learned, I didn't know too much about adult learning in general at that time, but how I learned that seemed just wrong like that seemed like just a bad way like if people are saying this is the best thing this is the most important part of the game surely i should be focusing on it um and then yeah so they think about how could i actually approach focusing on it Found a video from Akaro talking about blindfold chess being a great way to learn visualization.

I tried that at 900 ELO, whatever I was, and it went about as well as you'd expect.

And then what at the time to me seemed like a logical step, but has been kind of the centerpiece that built the whole business after that was I went, well, Blindfold Chess requires me to play an entire game of chess.

All I want to do is focus on visualization.

So what if I took all the decisions out and just focused on understanding a game instead of trying to play a game? So I recorded myself reading moves of a few chess games and just 10 minutes a day of like eyes closed, 100% focused, trying to understand each move, like really true and understand...

WTF.
